Shipping Container Repurposing / Container Sheds Whangarei & Northland

Construction site with shipping container, scaffolding, and corrugated metal sheets in a rural area.

Strong, Secure Sheds and Shelters – Built from Shipping Containers, Customised for Rural Use

Shipping containers make excellent bases for storage sheds, workshops, shelters, and utility spaces – but they need smart modification to work well on rural properties.

Containers offer a tough, weather-resistant shell, ideal for remote or exposed sites. But without the right access points, ventilation, and layout, they can be awkward or underused. We can modify and supply containers to make them usable, safe, and convenient. That includes installing doors, windows, vents, lighting, roofing extensions, insulation, and internal fit-outs.

Whether you're after a permanent shed or a movable solution, we’ll cut, weld, and fit the container to suit. All work is done with safety, drainage, and long-term durability in mind – no shortcuts or rough edges.

We convert and repurpose containers for a range of rural and lifestyle block uses, including:

  • Tool & Machinery Sheds – Secure, lockable storage with shelving, lighting, and access

  • Feed & Tack Rooms – Weatherproof space for hay, pellets, gear, and saddles

  • Workshops – Custom-fit with benches, power points, and ventilation

  • Animal Shelters – Sheltered, insulated space for goats, calves, or working dogs

  • Covered Bays & Lean-tos – Welded frames and roofing added to one or both sides

  • Mobile Units – Modifications for relocatable storage or shelters

  • Custom Access Points – Roller doors, barn doors, personnel doors, or ramps

  • Ventilation & Insulation – Reduces condensation and makes containers usable year-round

We can also carry out site preparation, including levelling, footing installation, and access track work if needed.
